Sponsor's own description

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a common malignancy in China with a high mortality rate. Its early recurrence and long-term prognosis are closely associated with tumor aggressiveness. Microvascular invasion (MVI), defined as the presence of tumor cells within small branches of the portal or hepatic veins, is a key indicator of malignant biological behavior in HCC. Clinically, MVI is strongly correlated with postoperative early recurrence and serves as an important factor in determining surgical margin extension, adjuvant therapy, and postoperative management strategies. At present, definitive diagnosis of MVI still relies on postoperative pathological examination, and stable, effective preoperative assessment methods are lacking. Although some studies have attempted to predict MVI using preoperative imaging features, their clinical translation remains limited by poor generalizability, weak interpretability, and insufficient cross-center adaptability. This study aims to leverage multiphase preoperative CT imaging, artificial intelligence techniques, and clinical prior knowledge to develop a high-performance, generalizable, and interpretable computer-aided diagnostic system for preoperative prediction of HCC-MVI. An observational, prospective evaluation will be conducted to assess system performance and to facilitate the clinical translation of intelligent diagnostic technologies in real-world practice.
